1955

[Mark Feit]

A crusty old Sergeant Major found himself at a gala event, hosted by a
local liberal arts college. There was no shortage of extremely young,
idealistic ladies in attendance, one of whom approached the Sergeant
Major for conversation. She said, "Excuse me, Sergeant Major, but you
seem to be a very serious man. Is something bothering you?"

"Negative, ma'am," the Sergeant Major said, "Just serious by nature."

The young lady looked at his awards and decorations and said, "It
looks like you have seen a lot of action."  The Sergeant Major's short
reply was, "Yes, ma'am, a lot of action."  The young lady, tiring of
trying to start up a conversation, said, "You know, you should lighten
up a little. Relax and enjoy yourself."  The Sergeant Major just
stared at her in his serious manner.

Finally the young lady said, "You know, I hope you don't take this the
wrong way, but when is the last time you had sex?" The Sergeant Major
looked at her and replied, "1955."  She said, "Well, there you
are. You really need to chill out and quit taking everything so
seriously! I mean, no sex since 1955!"

She took his hand and led him to a private room where she proceeded to
"relax" him several times. Afterwards, and panting for breath, she
leaned against his bare chest and said, "Wow, you sure didn't forget
much since 1955!" The Sergeant Major, glancing at his watch, said in
his matter-of-fact voice, "I hope not, it's only 21:30 now."
